End Matching
Often used to extend the apparent length of available veneers for high wall panels and long conference tables. End matching occurs in two types:
Architectural End Match
Leaves are individually book (or slip) matched, first end-to-endand then side-to-side, alternating end and side.
Visual Effect - Yields best continuous grain patterns for lengthas well
as width. Minimizes misalignment of grain pattern.

Continuous End Match
Leaves are individually book (or slip) matched, separate panels are stacked in sequenced order, either horizontally or vertically in the elevation. (Horizontal sequence illustrated.)
Visual Effect - Yields sequenced grain patterns for elevations, with pleasing blend of figure horizontally or vertically.

Panel End Match
Leaves are book (or slip) matched on panel subassemblies, with sequenced subassemblies end matched, resulting in some modest cost savings on projects where applicable.
Visual Effect - For most species, yields pleasing, blended appearance and grain continuity. Some misalignment of grain pattern will occur, and is not a defect.

Did you know ...
... that managed forests, thanks to their high proportion of young, strong, growing trees, enable CO2 to be extracted?
... that an old, unmanaged forest produces as much CO2 through processes of decomposition and decay as it stores, and that therefore an unmanaged forest contributes nothing to reducing global CO2? |
